KEH would call this lens "ugly". It looks to me like it was used in a marine environment; there are stains & miscelaneous discolorations on the coatings, some screw heads have some corrosion and the diaphragm blades have patches of oxidation - but it works! Focus is smooth, the focus drag button works as it should, and the diaphragm, while not buttery-smooth, works well. See http://www.wildlightphoto.com/ForSale/560Televit (sample photos were made at full aperture) The Televit is for Visoflex which means it can be easily adapted to other camera brands.
